With the data on its variability incomplete, this is retained 

 here as a variety, although it is definitely distinct from the 

 foregoing species and its several varieties. The spores are 

 elongated-elliptical, smooth, obtuse, 12-15 (16) x 5.5-6.5 (7) }x, 

 pale-purplish in microscope. Pileus 3-7 cm. broad, ''yellow- 

 ochre" to ''ochraceous-orange" (Ridg.), becoming tawny in 

 age, glabrescent, viscid, soon dry. Gills broad, at first "drab- 

 gray" then "storm-gray" (Ridg.); stem 4-10 cm. long, 4-8 

 mm. thick, white at first, as are the lacerate, spreading or re- 

 curved scales, but lutescent to fuscescent. 



It differs, then, according to the notices of the European 

 authors as to spore size, from S. squamosa by 'its large spores, 

 from the var. thrausta by lack of the hygrophanous flesh and 

 probably by its spores. Massee, who must have had access to 

 Cooke's var. aurantiacus, gives its spores like that of S. squa- 

 mosa. 



Tricholoma bufonium Fr. Rare. Tolland. Under spruce, 

 alder, etc.
